Emperor Kangxi left with a flick of his sleeve. He could rest for two days after the morning court session and would not have to attend court.

The court officials watched the emperor's departing figure, wanting to follow him to the Qianqing Palace, but in the end no one dared to take the lead, so the morning's farce simply came to nothing.

Upon returning to Qingxi Palace, Kangxi intended to go in and change into his court robes, but then he saw Saienjiya sitting by Harigana's bed, and only then did he remember the task he had been given that morning.

"This servant greets Your Majesty!"

Saenjiya thought it was Dulan and the others who had come in, so she didn't get up immediately. It wasn't until she realized something was wrong that she turned around and saw Kangxi walking towards the bed.

"Get up! You don't need to kneel like this when there are no outsiders. It makes Jiaojiao feel uncomfortable. Besides, we're all family, so there's no need to be so formal."

After finishing his speech, Kangxi did not look at Saenjiya's reaction. He walked to Harigana's side, watched her sleeping peacefully for a while, and then got up to go out and change into his court robes.

Senejashan's words stuck in her throat, neither coming out nor coming down.

This wasn't the first time she had met Kangxi; including this time, it had been at least seven or eight times.

But every time I saw Kangxi, he was cold and ruthless, exuding imperial majesty from the inside out.

Unexpectedly, the emperor was so kind in private; in fact, it was as if he could see no one but his daughter in his eyes.

"Before the palace banquet, I will have someone bring Baoli Ri in. You can bring him to see Jiao Jiao then; she misses you all very much."

However, the time shouldn't be too long; after all, it's a harem, so be careful.

Saenjiya choked. She had just told Harigana that she couldn't see her Abu anymore, but it turned out that she was just overthinking things.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Alright, I've said it before, you don't need to be so reserved anymore."

Jiaojiao must be unhappy to hear her mother and Abu call her a servant. She's currently in her postpartum period; don't make her sad.

Before Saenjiya could finish speaking, Kangxi interrupted her, saying, "You stay here with Jiaojiao. I'm going to my study. Call me when she wakes up."

Although Kangxi wanted to accompany Harigana, he also knew that compared to himself, it was better for Saenjiya to stay here with her.

He also wanted to see the two children, as he had been thinking about Harigana and hadn't had a chance to see them properly.

"Yes! Slave, uh, okay."

Emperor Kangxi sighed, realizing that stupidity was indeed a hereditary trait.

After saying that, Saenjaya realized she had been a bit silly, but she didn't know how to get along with the emperor like family.

Watching Kangxi personally take a set of clothes from the cabinet next to him and carry them out, she suddenly felt like she was being superfluous.

Things weren't as she expected; it seemed that Harigana wasn't just favored, but truly the sole recipient of her affections.

After carefully examining the furnishings in the room, I realized that many of the items were things that only emperors could use. In fact, it could be said that this room was like the emperor's bedroom, rather than the residence of a concubine.

Looking at the unconscious Harigana, she was overwhelmed with emotion.

Could this be what the shaman meant when he said someone had an extraordinary destiny?

After changing his clothes, Kangxi went to the side hall to see his two children. The older brother was a little older than his sister, but the sister looked much fairer than her brother.

Looking at his two children who were still sleeping, he felt that they didn't resemble him at all, and he felt a little disappointed.

"Your Majesty, the young prince and princess just woke up for a while, and then fell asleep after drinking milk."

She doesn't cry or fuss, and is very easy to take care of.

Granny Hu stood beside Emperor Kangxi, watching the two children with obvious affection.

She glanced at the Emperor and then thought back to the Imperial Noble Consort. She breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, the child looked more like the Imperial Noble Consort.

It's not that Emperor Kangxi wasn't good-looking, but compared to the Imperial Noble Consort, he was far inferior.

"Yes! Granny Hu, you must take good care of Qingxi Palace and absolutely cannot let anything go wrong."

"If you need anything, go to Li Dequan, or come directly to me."

Emperor Kangxi reached out and touched the little princess's cheek; it was soft.

"Your Majesty, that little palace maid?"

Hu Mama whispered a reminder that Kangxi had not forgotten that the reason he had kept Sai Enjiya in the inner palace was also for this reason: he wanted to interrogate her personally.

"I know what I'm doing."

Li Dequan stood to one side, looking at his two young masters with stars in his eyes.

There have been many princes and princesses in the palace, but so far, only the two children born to this empress are the healthiest, and they are fair-skinned and lovable.

After leaving the side hall, Kangxi would go to his study and have Li Dequan bring the young palace maid over for a personal interrogation.

When it comes to matters concerning Harigana, he doesn't want to go through anyone else's hands; he wants to do everything himself.

The process was proceeding smoothly at Qingxi Palace, but the jealousy of the women in the harem was practically overflowing.

Unable to contain her temper, Lady Tongjia knocked all the teacups in her hand to the ground.

For a time, the servants of Chengqian Palace were all on high alert, fearing that they would be punished.

"Go! Summon Lady Borjigit to me."

Borjigit Manau was going through a very difficult time because her appearance was similar to that of Harigana, so the Tongjia clan would intentionally or unintentionally torment her.

At first, the Empress Dowager would try to control her, but later, when she was promoted to the rank of Consort, Emperor Kangxi kept his promise to let her accompany the Empress Dowager and directly bestowed the Shou Kang Palace next to the Cining Palace as her residence, thus allowing her to escape the clutches of the evil.

When the Empress Dowager received this news, she was incredulous, yet helpless.

"Your Majesty, please calm down!"

Min'er wanted to advise Tongjia Shi, since she was now the head of the palace and had the Empress Dowager behind her. How could she go against her at this time?

Tongjia looked at Min'er coldly, without saying a word, but it sent a chill down Min'er's spine.

"Your Majesty, I will go right away. Please calm your anger."

As she left Chengqian Palace, Min'er looked at the rising sun and realized that she didn't have much time left to enjoy such a beautiful day.

Tongjia was about to be sealed away from the demon realm, and Harigana's becoming the Imperial Noble Consort was the final straw that broke the camel's back.

However, she still had a shred of rationality. Just because she could refrain from taking action did not mean she couldn't force others not to.

Now, neither secret guards nor the emperor matter to her.

All she had to do was bring Harigana down from his throne. As long as she died, taking her two bastard children with her, the imperial court and the harem would surely return to their former tranquility.

Standing by the window, looking towards the palace gate, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

The guards shook their heads, unable to understand what they were unwilling to accept at this point.

The one who suffered the most was Consort Hui.

As one of the oldest people around Emperor Kangxi, she outlived the Hesheli clan and the Niohuru clan, only to be replaced by the Tongjia clan.

Although he looked down on the Tongjia clan for being raised to the Manchu banner system, they were indeed the emperor's maternal family, so he had no choice but to put up with it.

But she never expected that she would be defeated by a Mongolian concubine, a girl who was almost ten years younger than the emperor.

Why are people's fates so different?
